Answer:

The correct answers are:

11. brave – braver –  bravest

12. distinct – more distinct – most distinct

13.  bad – worse – worst

14. high – higher –  highest

15. active – more active – most active

16.  long – longer – longest

17. large – larger –  largest

18. square – squarer – squarest

19. beautiful – more beautiful – most beautiful

20. eternal – absolute

21. practical – more practical – most practical

22.  lazy – lazier – laziest

23. empty – emptier – emptiest

24. fat – fatter - fattest

Explanation:

We use comparative to compare similarities or differences between people and things.

We make comparative adjectives when we add the termination <em>-er</em> to the end of the word (for one-syllable words), or we use the form <em>more + adjective</em> (for two, three, or more syllable adjectives).

We use superlative to describe the extreme quality of things or persons.

We form the superlative when we add the termination <em>-est</em> at the end of an adjective or by using the construction <em>most + adjective</em>.

An absolute adjective represents a non-gradable adjective that does not have comparative or superlative, so it cannot be graded.

For example: dead, unique, ideal, eternal, sufficient, whole, etc.

Slav-nsk [51]

The correct answer is D. Indigent

Explanation

Imperialism was a social, cultural, political, and economic phenomenon of the early nineteenth century in which the main powers began to explore, conquer and colonize the territory of Africa, Asia and Oceania. During this time, Europeans took advantage of the natural resources that were in those continents to promote the industrial revolution. This harmed the native communities of this continent that left them in a state of indigent (poverty and misery). However, Europeans did not feel any responsibility for this condition but instead considered it to be a natural matter. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Indigent
